Chapter 220
Ysabel sat down on the ground and began wailing as she slapped her thigh. "Ah, my accursed life! I went through so much to
adopt a daughter in hopes that she would make a lot of money or marry into a wealthy family, but it is all ruined in your hands,
you scumbag!"
"Enough! Stop crying!" Henry reprimanded her. "She shouldn't have been adopted in the first place. It was neither legal nor
reasonable! You insisted she is some kind of business genius, and you even looked for connections and favors everywhere to
get someone to adopt her! Look at how this ended up! Are you finally regretting your actions?!"
Clarence also laughed and added, "Exactly. Business genius, my *ss. My son was right. I am sure you had to sleep around to get
Neveah to where it is today!"
"Uncle Clarence, you... How could you say such a thing..."
Reene couldn't believe that she was hearing such insulting words coming from her "relatives"!
"What? Don't have the guts to admit it?" Clarence scoffed. "With your strength alone, you really think it makes sense you build
Neveah with just a few hundreds of thousands? Ha! Do you think we are stupid?"
"You—"
She was so angry that her chest heaved up and down, and she was about to argue again when Kingsley murmured, "Reene,
don't waste your anger on such a person. You might as well ask him where that evil-tongued Alex is now!"
Clarence's proud face instantly turned ashen right after Kingsley said that.
"You punk! Do you really have to put salt on the wound before you are done?!"
Instead of answering, Kingsley chuckled. "What is wrong? Alex couldn't have been beaten to death by Young Master Andrew,
could he?"
"Bullsh*t!" Clarence roared. "My son is still alive!"
Alex was indeed still living, but he was still unconscious after getting discharged from the intensive care unit to the normal ward.
The doctor had issued a notice of critical status which said that Alex would never be able to get up on his feet even if he were to
survive.
Just the thought of it felt like a knife had been driven through Clarence's chest.
With the crisis the family was in, he couldn't even take time out to pay his son a visit!
Still, he didn't know who he should hold accountable for his son's condition.
It wasn't like he could afford getting on the Kean Family's bad side and Ares was even worse. Clarence didn't even dare dream
about offending him!
Biting his teeth, he realized he could only release all his anger on Kingsley!
He pointed at Kingsley in the face and bellowed, "You little b*stard! You are the one who passed bad luck to our family! We
wouldn't be so unlucky if it weren't for you?!"
"Alex was the one who got himself in trouble. What does that have anything to do with me?" Kingsley's eyes were indignant as
he said coldly, "You baring your fangs like a mad dog will only make your family fall into ruins sooner"
"Haha! You f*cker!" Clarence started laughing when his anger reached its peak. "You think you can ruin the Wynns?! You are
better off thinking of a way to pay off the 50 million with Reene!"
Kingsley's eyes narrowed slightly as he glanced around the members of the family. "I'll ask you one last time," he growled. "Are
you sure you want to so heartlessly push Reene to take the blow?"
"Heartless?" Clarence smiled disdainfully. "We have never given her our hearts. What do you mean 'heartless'?"
Reene gradually stopped trembling when she heard this. She then turned to look at Elijah and Ysabel. "Dad, Mom, how about
you? Are you both on Grandpa's side?"
Elijah's face was hard as steel when he hissed, "Don't call us that anymore! I have just made a call to my classmate who works
for the Ministry of Civil Affairs. We will be terminating our adoption of you soon!"
"Yes, yes!" Ysabel also agreed in a shrill voice. "Anyway, I only adopted you after I wormed around the loopholes of the law.
Technically speaking, your adoption was illegal! You have nothing to do with us!"
A clear drop of tear ran across Reene's cheek then. Closing her eyes lightly, she uttered in a disheartened tone, "Okay. If that is
the case, we are done!"
As soon as she said that, the loud noise of a chair falling over rang out when one of the younger members of the Wynn Family
abruptly stood up.
"O-Oh my God! Something big has happened!" he exclaimed in shock.
"What is all this yelling about?!" Henry scolded. "Do you not see what is going on here? How impudent!"
With his phone in his hand, the young man stuttered, "No... Old Master Henry... The headlines... God of War..."
As though his tongue was failing him, he incoherently sputtered without having a sensical sentence coming out of his mouth.
